The Undateable Comedy Tour is back on the road to promote Season 2 which begins airing on NBC on March 17th. Series stars and stand-up comedians Chris D’Elia, Brent Morin, Ron Funches and Rick Glassman are all touring together with brand new road dates. The tour kicks off at SXSW on March 15th. Then cast will wrap up the tour at Carolines on Broadway the last day of March while hitting Miami, Chicago, Detroit, and Vegas in between. Before being recently cancelled after three seasons, the cast of Sullivan and Son also toured as a show with much success as the primary cast are all stand-ups themselves including Steve Byrne, Roy Wood Jr., Owen Benjamin, and Ahmed Ahmed. Hopefully, this will become a growing trend as it’s a fantastic way to connect with these comedy shows directly while watching the cast members work their craft that’s rooted in stand-up. Read More
